Al Ahed FC in Asian football

Al Ahed Football Club is a Lebanese association football club based in the city of Beirut.

Prior to winning the competition, their best spell was in 2016, when they reached the semi-finals before being knocked out by Iraqi club Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya 3–4 on aggregate.[2] In 2019 Ahed defeated April 25 to win the AFC Cup: they became the first Lebanese side to do so, after Nejmeh and Safa's defeats in the 2005 and 2008 finals, respectively.[3]
